Environmental Sensors

Environmental sensors are used to monitor a site’s irradiance, temperature, and wind velocity, and to calculate site performance ratio (PR). The sensors connect to the SolarEdge Control and Communication Gateway and the measurements are displayed in the SolarEdge monitoring platform. Up to three sensors can be connected to a single Control and Communication Gateway. Additional sensors can be installed using multiples gateways.

Module temperature sensor (SE1000-SEN-TMOD-S2): The module temperature sensor measures the temperature at the back of the photovoltaic module. The sensor's measurement signal is 4 to 20mA covering a -40 to +90°C range.
